O demigods, I instruct you to approach ViÅ›varÅ«pa, the son of Tvaá¹£á¹Ä, and accept him as your guru. He is a pure and very powerful brÄhmaṇa undergoing austerity and penances. Pleased by your worship, he will fulfill your desires, provided that you tolerate his being inclined to side with the demons.
Lord BrahmÄ advised the demigods to accept the son of Tvaá¹£á¹Ä as their spiritual master although he was always inclined toward the benefit of the asuras.
